If I try to run update-initramfs while busybox is not installed, I get an error message:

      E: busybox is required but not installed
      E: /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/busybox failed with return 1.

This happens irrespective of the BUSYBOX setting in /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf.

You have another package installed (maybe cryptsetup) that requires
busybox to work in the initramfs.

Try this:

     grep -r BUSYBOX /usr/share/initramfs-tools/conf-hooks.d

Ben.

Yes, I have cryptsetup installed, but this problem appeared only after upgrading initramfs-tools to version 0.121.
